Summary
Release Notes: Hardware Compat: Add more network devices

Replace the hand-crafted ipw(4), iwi(4), iwm(4), malo(4), rtwn(4),
and wpi(4) entries with logic to generate them from the manual pages.

Also update logic for ixgbe, which was renamed to ix(4) in d8b48a2,
and add logic to generate ice(4), which has been present for a while.

This depends on https://reviews.freebsd.org/D47171 for wifi HW and previously published commits for malo, wpi, ix, and ice.

If this is acceptable, please git commit --author ="Alexander Ziaee <concussious@runbox.com>" so I can demonstrate my activity. Thanks!

I was auditing the list after discovering that an(4) was already removed prior to FreeBSD 14 and discovered that malo(4) already has a hardware section, so add it in.

Where's the change for malo(4)?

malo has had a hardware section since malo appeared in 3c7e78d32 for FreeBSD 7.1

I'll just get this in; we'll have a few days until we'll expand anything from this file again.
